Quarterly Report


Item 2. Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 & 2008

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2009, net sales decreased by 22% to $11,604,000 from $14,916,000 in first quarter 2008. Overall video display volume declined 22% or $3.5 million due to a 62% unit decline in CRT sales and a 13% unit decline in LCD sales. Parts sales increased $0.4 million and used games sales decreased $0.2 million in the first quarter 2009 compared to the same quarter 2008. Gaming sales for the first quarter 2009 decreased by 17% to $10,469,000 from $12,618,000 in the first quarter 2008 due to a slow gaming market. Amusement sales decreased by 51% to $1,135,000 in the first quarter 2009 from $2,298,000 in the first quarter 2008 primarily due to lower replacement market sales. As a result, gaming sales accounted for 90% of total sales and amusement sales accounted for 10% of total sales in the first quarter 2009 compared to 85% and 15% respectively in the same quarter 2008.

Gross margin for the first quarter 2009 decreased $0.36 million to $2.08 million or 18.0% of sales compared to $2.44 million or 16.4% in the first quarter 2008 for a 1.6 point increase in margin percentage. The $3.3 million sales decline reduced the gross margin by $543,000, while the increase in margin percentage increased the gross margin by $185,000. The margin improvement was due to significantly higher parts margin and sales mix and some improvement in display margins due to a higher percentage being produced in China and improved purchasing. The company is concentrating on new parts lines with improved margin and introducing new lower cost video display product for the amusement and class II gaming markets.

Operating expense decreased by $295,000 in the first quarter 2009 compared to the same quarter 2008. However, operating expenses increased to 15.7% of sales in the quarter from 14.2% of sales in the same quarter last year due to lower sales. The operating expense reductions were due to a $105,000 decline in compensation and benefit expense due to lower headcount, a $85,000 decline in commission expenses primarily due to lower sales, a $42,000 decline in IT depreciation expense, and a $63,000 decline in other including legal and travel expenses. The Company continues to reduce its headcount and to place great emphasis on operating expense control.

Operating income declined $63,000 to $264,000 in the first quarter 2009 compared to $327,000 in the first quarter 2008 due to significantly lower sales. However, higher gross margins and lower operating expenses offset 88% of the decline in gross margin due to lower sales.

Interest expense was $58,000 in the first quarter 2009 compared to $114,000 in the first quarter 2008 due to lower average debt balances and lower interest rates. Other expense was $93,000 in the first quarter 2009 compared to $1,000 in the first quarter 2008 due to state tax audit settlement expenses.
